tunik

Also known as tunica

A tunic is a garment for the torso, usually simple in style, reaching from the shoulders to a length somewhere between the hips and the ankles. It might have arm-sleeves, either short or full-length. Most forms have no fastenings. The name derives from the Latin tunica, the basic garment worn by both men and women in ancient Rome, which in turn was based on earlier Greek garments that covered wearers' waists.
